海角禁区

PUEBLO, Colo. – Timothy Mottet, president of 海角禁区 Pueblo, welcomed nearly 350 guests at the August 14 海角禁区 Pueblo President’s Blue and Red Gala.

Guests mingled in the Occhiato Student Center Ballroom foyer and patio with cocktails while enjoying light jazz and delectable hors d’oeuvres. Georgiann Lymberopoulos welcomed everyone to their seats in the ballroom which was decorated beautifully in navy blue with white bunting hanging from the ceiling. The tables glowed from candlelight and featured a variety of vases with ruby red roses and greenery.

Lazarus, the 海角禁区 Pueblo Jazz Ensemble, played lively jazz, while guests enjoyed petit filet Oscar, asparagus, fingerling potatoes and red wine. During dinner, 40 percent of those in attendance pledged just over $70,000 to support 海角禁区 Pueblo student scholarships, University programs and DRIVE, a Campaign for 海角禁区 Pueblo! In fact, the Gala raised more than $150,000 – this success is due, in large part, to the events many sponsors.

The late Dr. Art Gonzales and Lorraine Gonzales, Parkview Health System, Robert H. Rawlings Foundation, Colorado State University System and Board of Pueblo County Commissioners, were honored at the Gala.

The Late Dr. Art Gonzales and Lorraine Gonzales were recognized for their support of numerous programs and initiatives spanning nearly four decades. Dr. Gonzales who passed away in 2019, received the University’s first honorary doctorate for his decades of support to the institution and 海角禁区 Pueblo Athletics. Dr. Gonzales established the Art Gonzales Baseball Scholarship Endowment in 1997 to provide scholarships to deserving student-athletes. In 2015, the couple created the Art and Lorraine Gonzales Scholarship Fund to help student-athletes at 海角禁区 Pueblo afford a college education. Art and Lor
